1.) We spoke to each other before we knew how to write. If what you’re writing doesn’t scan as spoken words, revise.
2.) Of course gender’s fluid. Cis, trans, 2-spirit, whatever you are, we’re all descendants of 40,000 women & 40,000 men. Bound to be remix.
3.) Sometimes we do nothing wrong. Sometimes we do nothing, wrong.
4.) If it wasn’t all so dire, watching the religious right, the white nationalists & GOP business elite play musical chairs would be hilarious. The conservative movement has long been 80% bigots, 15% Jesus freaks & 5% business elites/poor folk suckered into “libertarianism” I spose.
5.) If you are going to dive into a pool to commit an act of cannibalism, be sure to yell “Hanni-BALL!” first.
6.) If Bruce Wayne had instead been changed by watching his rich dad blow away a beggar with a golden gun for two bucks, he’d have become Trump.
7.) Words were invented to tell others to get away from danger but really we were just saving Ugh’s life to score points w/ his sister Oogella.
8.) When the going gets weird, scabs slough & old wounds blush in the sun. All we can do is make best of bad & hope this time we actually heal.
9.) I’d write a parody of “Thrift Shop” about sweat shops but Macklemore is running out of his 15 minutes & no one’d know what I was parodying.
10.) Oh God, internet, don’t start calling short essays “quick reads”. It just sounds goddamn Orwellian.
11.) Giving Russia Today credence is like listening to Tokyo Rose in WW2 and being like “No, guys, let’s hear her out!”
